conditions, the current feed to the unit’s motor is interrupted:
1. Continual operation of the document shredder with maximum capacity for a prolonged
period of time, e.g. longer than 2 minutes without interruption.
2. Overrunning the shredding capacity e.g. adding more than 6 sheets of paper (75g) in
one operation or in the event the paper is not inserted length-wise into the feed slot.
Under the above-mentioned conditions, the automatic overload guard of the motor is
triggered, whereupon the current feed to the device is interrupted. In such a case, please
take the following steps:
1. Disconnect the main plug from the AC socket in order to avoid the risk of serious injuries
and wait at least 60 minutes until the overload guard has reset. Now tear off excess
paper from the top of the shredder or remove it.
2. Reconnect the main plug to the AC socket and switch to REV. Pull the remaining paper
